My favorite other webcomics are Penny Arcade, xkcd, Brawl in the Family, Lackadaisy, and Freefall.

Oh, the reasons why we get along so well.

Re: Favorite Webcomic/Comic Series/Graphic novel

Besides Housepets! Uh.

For a while 8-Bit Theater was my favorite and maybe while it was updating, but I have to say I greatly prefer Order of the Stick. I really, really love the serials and especially those two which post full pages (you kind of have to if you are a serial adventure). I don't really know what to say, I can't really brag about them too much except to say just read it! You'll be hooked after 5-6 minutes.

Also on my list of favorites are Penny Arcade, and (moreso early on up through the 400s than now) XKCD.VG Cats would be fantastic if that updated more than once a century (but it does update!).

Actually no, I think I can say: It's the characters. Housepets has really well developed characters, as does Order of the Stick and 8-Bit theater has very... distinctive characters if nothing else. That's all it really can be about, the art style isn't generally what makes it entertaining (as long as it isn't bad), or fancy music soundtracks or anything else, the very best ones just have to have great writing.

By Graphic Novel I'm going to assume manga so with that in mind I will make my case for Bleach and Soul Eater, just saying.

Re: Favorite Webcomic/Comic Series/Graphic novel

Lackadaisy. It is definitely the best comic I've ever read. It's so good that it almost seems to hover above the realm of comics.

Oh, and VG cats. Even though there could be a bit more character development I find that I actually care about the characters, even though the comic is so manipulatively funny that I still manage to laugh when Leo gets mutilated or eaten.

Wow...I didn't realize two kinds was that popular! Other webcomics I like to read are The Furry Experience and Altermeta (before it was rebooted). I'd also like to mention Concession, though in concession's case it was more or less forcing you to read it (I really wouldn't recomend reading it if you're the faint of heart...it's pretty twisted).

Surprised no-one's mentioned Sabrina Online.

It's not as popular as it appears to be. A lot of fans followed a link here from Two Kinds, hence there are a lot of fans of it in the Housepets! fandom. The-comic-that-shall-not-be-named-but-already-has-been also linked to Housepets!, hence why (tragically) it has a lot of fans here too. VG Cats is an honorable mention, since it was actually Sinder's signature that brought people here.

Basically, when a comic links here, Housepets! gets a lot of fans that are also fans of that comic. Coincidentally I read Two Kinds but never even knew it linked here.

No, because I went on to name "Jack." And if it was the comic that should not be named, you just went against my intentions and named it anyway. It is, however, a comic that should not be discussed. Nor should we be talking about the other one, even if not by name.

Get back on topic and don't discuss how "bad" a comic is, because that kind of discussion can all too easily jump way beyond the pretty-much PG rating of the forums and I'm sure everyone would rather not find out what happens at that point.

Re: Favorite Webcomic/Comic Series/Graphic novel

I think the main reason why Jack shouldn't be discussed is because it's a M rated webcomic...Yes, I read it.

I've liked too many webcomics to rememeber which I need to state, hehe.

The first I really got into was 'Looking for Group', which would probably be my fav' (asside Housepets!). As of comic books, I'm the biggest fan of 'The Beano'. I'm not sure you guys who aren't in the UK have ever heard of that though.Lastly, my fav' graphic novel, 'Full Metal Alchemist'. No question about it!
